Gutter Cleaning
Protect your home from costly water damage with professional gutter cleaning from Exterior Cleaning of South Carolina. Since 2006, we’ve been helping homeowners in Summerville and nearby Lowcountry communities keep their gutters flowing properly and their homes safe from foundation issues, roof leaks, and mold growth caused by clogged drainage systems.
Gutter cleaning isn’t just a seasonal task—it’s essential year-round maintenance for preserving the structural integrity of your property. Our experienced team provides safe, thorough service using the right tools and techniques to get the job done efficiently and without a mess.
Why Clean Gutters Matter
Your gutter system is designed to divert rainwater away from your home’s foundation, siding, roof, and landscaping. But over time, leaves, pine needles, twigs, and even bird nests can clog the gutters and downspouts—especially during storm-heavy Lowcountry seasons.
When gutters are blocked, water overflows and pools where it shouldn’t. This can lead to:
- Water damage to your roof and fascia
- Basement or crawlspace flooding
- Soil erosion around your home
- Mold and mildew buildup
- Insect and rodent infestations
- Premature gutter rust and sagging
Regular gutter cleaning helps avoid these issues and extends the life of your roofing system, making it one of the smartest preventative measures you can take as a homeowner.

At Exterior Cleaning of South Carolina, we don’t just clear debris—we inspect your entire gutter system to ensure it’s working properly. Our full-service gutter cleaning includes:

How Often Should Gutters Be Cleaned?
In most Lowcountry neighborhoods, we recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year—typically in the spring and fall. Homes surrounded by trees, especially pine or oak, may require more frequent service to keep up with heavy debris.
If you notice water spilling over the sides during a rainstorm, sagging gutter sections, or plant growth in your gutters, it’s time to give us a call.
